Power utility Eskom has announced that load shedding will be pushed to stage 4 at 18h00 on Tuesday (4 October) until further notice.

“A generation unit each at Kendal and Lethabo power stations have just tripped. This necessitates the immediate escalation of load shedding to Stage 4 at 18h00. This stage of load shedding will be maintained until further notice,” it said.

The group has had to contend with repeated trips and breakdowns, diesel supply shortages and suspected acts of sabotage at the Camden power station which brought the entire station down for two days over the weekend.According to EskomSePush, as of the start of this week , the country has experienced 1,949 hours of national load shedding in 2022.

Presenting its system status and outlook to the joint portfolio committee on public enterprises and mineral resources and energy in August, Eskom’s forecast for load shedding over the next few months and extending into 2023 is bleak.

It will be stage5 before end of week.

Basically, economic destruction Level 4 until further notice. There is power, we are just not going to provide it.

This is not Andre du Ruyter who is behind thi, this is a ANC issue, I've heard there was someone who was willingly to help to fix this and takes them 90 days fully restored

Like what the hell is going on! Surely, surely the ANC have the resources to pull this country out of load shedding! Bring back coal, frack in the Karoo and get rid of the gangsters! Easy! Come on ANC you are failing your people! Wake up!!!
